Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

The bald head of the Chinese Cuisine Research Institute, after presenting the Red Oil Dumplings, got the highest score of 60 points so far. At the same time, out of concerns about the impact of the superior cuisine, especially the spicy and spicy cuisine, other students dare not The dishes are presented.

Seeing this, Liu Maoxing smiled confidently and placed the small steamer in front of Tanaka.

Chef Tanaka, please taste my 'Shanglong Dumplings'! Liu Maoxing said confidently.

On the other hand, Tanaka looked at Liu Maoxing in a strange way, which made him feel a little strange. Isn't this too obvious? Don't you worry about scaring the snake?

On the contrary, after hearing Liu Maoxing's cooking for him again, and choosing some arrogant-sounding names, some students who had originally disliked him couldn't help showing a look of disdain.

This time there was a bald head who took the lead in the charge. The bald head of the Chinese Cuisine Research Institute said bluntly: Shanglong dumplings? Hehe, with your strength, if you don't serve the dishes behind the 'red oil dumplings', it may indeed be possible to 'sheng' Just once! As for now...hehe, of course, it should be possible to not be eliminated, otherwise it would be too disappointing!

But in this way, we may surpass him, right?

That's right! Let him know that Yuanyue College is different from ordinary small places in the backcountry!

With the truly capable bald head taking the lead, some other students became more courageous.

Chef Tanaka glanced dissatisfiedly at the students below, and the students who hadn't presented their dishes quickly calmed down.

Tanaka stretched out his hand to open the lid of the steamer, and couldn't help squinting his eyes a little, but the others couldn't see the existence of the light of cooking, and only thought it was because of the steam!

I saw a dragon... No, it was a shrimp dumpling lying in the steamer, and it was a rare shrimp dumpling made of a whole shrimp.

Usually, if you put a whole shrimp in the shrimp dumplings, because the shrimp meat will naturally bend after steaming, it is easy to squeeze the skin, and if you use all the shrimp paste, it will not have the firm taste of the shrimp meat, so you usually use shrimp The mince is mixed with the cut shrimp meat, or the shrimp mince and the already bent shrimp are used as fillings...

However, Liu Maoxing's shrimp dumplings are obviously made of peeled whole shrimp, and the shrimp head is carved into the shape of a dragon's head, sticking to one end of the shrimp dumpling that wraps the whole shrimp body!

Hey, he's showing off his knife skills again, besides the knife... what?

It wasn't over yet, and then under the shocked eyes of everyone, Liu Maoxing's Shenglong dumplings actually stand up in the steam that has not dissipated!

I saw one end of the dragon head of the shrimp dumpling standing upright. At this time, you can also see that the upper body of the dragon is connected with two shrimp feet that symbolize the dragon's claws!

Accompanied by the steam, it seems that the real rising dragon was born...

After the steam dissipated, it could be seen that the entire shrimp dumpling itself was faintly pink, as if it was covered with fine dragon scales.

Because Liu Maoxing chose the female prawns of Oriental prawns, which are big enough, including the head of the shrimp, which is 20 centimeters long, and it looks really imposing!

What, what are you doing? Couldn't it be a tie?

That's right! This is food, not for him to play with...

Aren't you enough? Where is the thread? Obviously, he didn't even move his hands!

Chef Tanaka looked at the Shanglong Dumplings in front of him in shock at this time, but he was able to become a chef at Yuanyue College, and he was also a master chef who was proficient in pastry, Tanaka immediately discovered the mystery.

Huh? The skin of this shrimp dumpling... is two pieces of dough that are put together up and down? And the upper part is the sausage roll skin, and the lower half is the flour skin, because the flour skin in the lower half will swell even more after being heated. , plus the inside of the shrimp body is upside down, following the curve of the shrimp body, it can realize the scene of 'dragon raising its head'! Tanaka nodded.

Looking at his expression, Liu Maoxing became even more puzzled. If this was a fake, Tanaka's acting skills would be terrifying!

However, he was able to see the mystery of the word sheng in Shanglong Dumplings at a glance, which shows that his accomplishments in pastry making are really not bragging.

As he said, the reason why Shanglong Dumplings can rise is because of two different types of dough, which makes the flour skin below expand more violently, and the second is because of the dragon head attached to the shrimp dumpling. , in fact, it is opposite to the shrimp body inside, which is equivalent to twisting the shrimp head 180 degrees and leaving it outside... In this way, you can use the twists and turns of the steamed shrimp body to match the effect of lifting the head.

Of course, it seems very simple to say so, but it is necessary to calculate the swelling degree of the two kinds of dough, grasp the thickness of the dough, and estimate the degree of curling of the shrimp body, so as not to break the dough or make the dough redundant...

Just from these points of view, Liu Maoxing's grasp of noodles has already reached a very high level!

And since Shanglong Dumplings has been seen by Chef Tanaka, it is not just good-looking...

Shrimp dumpling entrance, Chef Tanaka's complexion changed again after the red oil dumpling, and it was even more dramatic than before!

If the Red Oil Dumplings only amazed him a little, then Liu Maoxing's Shanglong Dumplings shocked him and made him intoxicated afterwards!

This kind of texture and taste...Why is it so rich in depth? Obviously only shrimps are used...Wait! This is...that's how it is! The reason for the 'upgrade' is not only the external effect, but also this reason Is it? And there are shrimps in it... Chef Tanaka couldn't help talking to himself.

Finally, after calming down for a while, Chef Tanaka stared at Liu Maoxing and said, Very good, since it is a scoring...this 'Shanglong Dumpling' should have...79 points!

What?

7, 79 points? Are there really more than 60 points?

It's actually 19 points higher than Musashi!

Different from the shock of other students, Liu Maoxing frowned and said, Eh? Only 79 points?

Although Shanglong Dumplings is a dish that appeared in the early stage, it is also at the level of Super Three Stars!

If the test in the autumn selection competition was noodles, this Shanglong Dumpling should have scored at least 95 points...

Chef Tanaka didn't explain much, and Liu Maoxing didn't ask any more questions. After all, 79 points is already the highest score, and in this cooking room, the students who haven't submitted their dishes in the back can't surpass themselves...

In fact, what Chef Tanaka didn't say is that, as he explained before, his scoring criteria are used to evaluate his chefs, prospective chefs, and official chefs!

79 points is already the highest score he can give a third-class chef. If he reaches 80 points, he will apply to be his chef and be promoted to second-class chef. Similarly, the standard for first-class chef is 90 points .

In Yuanyue Hotel, the third-class chef is about the level of super three-star, so Tanaka's rating is still very objective.

How is it possible? I don't believe it! How could the 'Red Oil Dumplings' handed down by Master Jiu lose to the 'Shanglong Dumplings'? Is it because he can move because he is opportunistic? After all, the pasta is still for eating, isn't it? The bald Musashi questioned Tanaka's rating.

That's right, so you should try it too! Liu Maoxing said and handed him a small steamer.

After Musashi saw Liu Maoxing's confident smile, he couldn't help but nervously lifted the lid of the steamer, and took out the Shanglong Dumpling and put it in his mouth.

The expression of shock, satisfaction, and enjoyment reappeared from his face, followed by the depression that Chef Tanaka did not have...

This deep taste...how did you do it? Musashi asked in disbelief.

Liu Maoxing didn't keep it private either, and said bluntly: The reason why we designed the moving shrimp dumpling is not only for the 'stunning', but also to make there is no gap between the skin and filling of the shrimp dumpling! And this shrimp The material of the dumpling is a whole shrimp!

Speaking of which, Liu Maoxing picked up the remaining shrimp head, and turned the hollow side to Musashi...

Musashi was puzzled at first, but soon discovered the secret: It's the shrimp brains? You hollowed out the shrimp brains completely and then added them to the stuffing? No wonder the shrimp dumpling itself is pink... how did you think of it?

It wasn't something I came up with at all... Naturally, Liu Maoxing would not just answer him like that, but chose to smile unfathomable.

Brain supplement is the ladder of human progress. For example, now, Musashi has brain supplement a lot of things from Liu Maoxing's smile.

In connection with Chef Tanaka's advice before, Musashi also understands that if he blindly imitates Kuga Teruki, he will never reach the level of Kuga Teruki, and he will cut off his own path of ascent.

As a student of Yuanyue, in fact, he also has a certain creative ability. Kuga Teruki is not like Nakiri Jiji, who strongly opposes self-innovation, but will personally taste the new dishes of the members of the club...

But after that, only the best dishes can be left on the menu of the club, and every time someone innovates, they will definitely be criticized as worthless.

Jiuga Teruki is not lying, after all, he is also one of the top ten. The cooking of other members is naturally not worth comparing with him. Even two students with similar culinary skills, one imitated Jiuga Teruki's recipes, A dish with its own innovation must be more successful with the former's...

Even if the latter's culinary skills are higher, it is often impossible to reverse this result. Gradually, the Chinese Cuisine Research Institute has become Kuga Teruki's personal Spicy Sichuan Cuisine Research Institute, and the recipes recorded by the club are all from Kuga Teruki hand of.

And the daily club activities are not to discuss how to develop Chinese cuisine, but to practice and imitate Kuga Teruki's recipes crazily!

Because even small innovations on this basis often result in a decrease in the deliciousness of the cuisine, and gradually they don't know how to innovate themselves...

Others can't see the psychological activities behind Musashi, but they can see that Musashi has recognized Liu Maoxing's score!

Although in the end he still said angrily: Don't be too happy too soon! If I were to be the commander-in-chief of Jiu, he would be far beyond my level...
